MyGig Problems
Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem as I am with the MyGig?
When i start the Jeep up sometimes the MyGig just stays blank for 30 seconds and then it starts up and I can't play anything from the Hard Drive for awhile.
Anybody else having this problem and if so....is there a fix?
Thanx

Yea I had that issue but I put Update 9.715 in and haven't had it happen since I updated. The only way I could get mine to play again was to remove the Mygig Fuse and then replace it and then it would come back.

same same
i was having the same problemeaux till i upgraded to .715. I also loaded the March 08 version of Gracenotes BUT after i loaded both and did a restart, i found out that all the music in my HDD was gone. Had 512 songs on it. HOWEVER, after reloading the music, the Gig is working fine. i really don't know if it was .715 or gracenotes that X'd my music.

Sounds like your HD might have been on it's way out.
713 prevents it from getting worse, but if it was already slightly messed up, it won't fix it. 715 will (and the weird 799 patch) fix it, but it has the chance of erasing your music. (basically it formats the hd and fixes the MBR on the HD as near as I can tell. I'll find out more specifics this weekend.)

Well, I installed .715 and it corrected the startup problem for a few days. Now it is back. About half the time the MyGig does not start. Sometimes it will start after driving a for a few minutes. Any other ideas for a fix?

I have found that in either 9.713 or 9.715 the playback from HDD seems to take a LOT longer to start up. Almost 30 seconds (but feels like 5 minutes). This delay seem rather long considering that to start a track from scratch (after say listening to SAT) only take 2 or 3 seconds. Somethign definately 'feels' different. But never experienced the screen being blank during this time - just doesn't display track info on LHS (or play).

Fix the Gig
I am on my second MyGig unit and the third is on order. Every so often, mine starts up fine, but has no audio at all. If the Jeep sits off for awhile or I pull and re-seat the fuse, it works fine.
Soooo not worth the $1200
